can we get !all! (unstructured, big data) data customers generate (not via rest API) for our DWH?

we would like to get !all! data (buzzword: big data) generated on the platform to join this with our other data pools and to relate the community activities with our classic DWH.   Is this possible...

besides the "big data" stuff, also for a regular DWH it will most likely not be appropriate to gather the data via REST API. In "classic" BI we want to stage our data first, ensure its integrity and make sure it still fits to the DWH data model, add aggregations and relations, et. cetera. To pull all the data via REST to begin this process will most probably not be good either.

 

Hence the question remains: any possibility to get bulk/mass/big data out of the SaaS platform besides REST API?
